A collapsible leakproof container comprises an orifice ring defining a mouth of the container, a lid that detachably seals with the orifice ring, a flexible body coupled to the orifice ring, the flexible body having at least an outer layer a waterproof barrier layer disposed inside the outer layer and sealed to the orifice ring, and a puncture resistant layer disposed between the waterproof layer and an interior of the flexible body. Such a container is helpful for transporting fragile vessels such as wine while travelling.

The present invention relates to maximizing advertising space on product packaging. Embodiments of the present invention relate to a method of increasing advertising space on various product packaging by increasing the graphic space on and apparent volume of the packaging, such as those used for cosmetics and toiletries. Preferred embodiments include a product packaging with a partially or completely recessed container closure. Further preferred embodiments include a container closure that is threaded, fused, or snapped in to the body of the container. Embodiments of the invention can be modified to accommodate existing products or provide a unique package design for emerging products.

A drinking cup includes a container and a detachable closure. The closure has a connection end for connection to the container, the connection end being open for receipt of liquid from within the container. The closure has a closed end opposite the connection end and a drinking rim formed at the peripheral edge of the closed end. The closure has a side wall extending between the connection end and the closed end, and at least one opening that facilitates the passage of liquid from within the container to the drinking rim. A seal is supported by the closure and extends around an outside surface of the side wall, sealing the drinking rim against the passage of liquid through the drinking rim. The seal is flexible and responsive to pressure to lift away from the drinking rim to allow passage of liquid through the drinking rim for drinking from the cup.

Medical device dispensers along with related systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments dispenses within the scope of this disclosure may be configured to couple another structure such as an IV pole. Additionally, dispensers within the scope of this disclosure may be configured with locking or otherwise tamper resistant elements.

Beverage systems and kits and methods of using the same. A beverage system of the present disclosure includes a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section above a non-threaded inner wall section; a threaded gasket having a threaded portion and an outer curved profile, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the non-threaded inner wall section of the container when coupled thereto.

There is disclosed a receptacle (10) comprising: a container (20) having an opening (28), the opening having a circular profile; and a lid (50) for closing the opening of the container; wherein the lid and container are configured to lock together with a rotational friction lock, the rotational friction lock comprising a protruding locking tab (30) on a surface of the container or the lid and a locking surface profile (68) defined on the other of the lid or the container; wherein the locking surface is configured to oppose the locking tab when the lid closes the opening of the container, the locking surface having a locking portion (74), and the locking portion having a continuous surface with a varying radius such that friction between the locking tab and the locking portion varies on relative rotation between the lid and the container.

Beverage systems and kits and methods of using the same. A beverage system of the present disclosure includes a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section above a non-threaded inner wall section; a threaded gasket having a threaded portion and an outer curved profile, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the non-threaded inner wall section of the container when coupled thereto.

A lid assembly configured to be coupled to a beverage container, the lid assembly including a base defining an axis, a sip ring rotatable about the axis with respect to the thread base, and an elevator assembly coupled to the sip ring. The elevator assembly includes an upper elevator and a lower elevator coupled to the upper elevator for co-rotation with the upper elevator. Rotation of the sip ring rotation of the sip ring is configured to cause the elevator assembly to translate along the axis.

A bottle system has a liquid container with a reservoir therein and a lid that releasably engages with the liquid container and, thereby, selectively seals the reservoir when engaged with the liquid container. A slot is in the lid. A storage container inserts through the slot and, thereby, releasably engages the lid when inserted through the slot. The lid forms a barrier that separates the storage container from liquid when liquid is present in the reservoir.
